Five stories by Premchand from the 1930 Ganga-Pustakmala edition: Mrityu ke Pichhe, Abhushan, Rajya-Bhakt, Adhikar-Chinta and Grih-Dah. Each is a quiet study of family, money and loyalty in the India of his time. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur.
